Lyrics for Song: Nine Pound Hammer
Lyrics for Album: Osborne Brothers 2 (1968-1974) [Bear Family] [1995]
(Merle Travis)
Oh, the nine pound hammer is just a little too heavy
Baby for my size baby for my size
Roll on buddy pull a load o'coal
How can I go when my wheels won't roll.
--- Instrumental ---
I'm goin' on the mountain gonna see my baby
But I ain't comin' back Lord I ain't comin' back
Roll on buddy pull a load o'coal
How can I go when my wheels won't roll.
--- Instrumental ---
It's a long way to Harlem it's a long way to Hazzard
Just to get a little brew just to get a little brew
Roll on buddy pull a load o'coal
How can I go when my wheels won't roll.
--- Instrumental ---
Lord, when I'm long gone you can make my tombstone
Out of number nine coal out of number nine coal
Roll on buddy pull a load o'coal
How can I go when my wheels won't roll.
Now roll on buddy don't you roll so slow
How can I go when my wheels won't roll...
